  1. I never had that happen , however please call you dr. As soon as possible
  2. hi there. i was banded on 4-12-10 and feel the same way u do. i feel that my dr didnt tell me any of the downside of the band, he just to me gave a sell pitch. i wish that i would have down more reseach on the dr and staff. one day he walked by me and didnt even know who i was. but nim in pain around my port area and it has me so stressed out. but i try to stay positive and i want to say the same for you. hang in there and continue to talk thru your fears and not to eat over them. talk with other bandster. family and friends dont always understand. fill free to call me at 718-602-0174 in nyc anytime:rolleyes:
  3. :sad:Hi was banded on 4-12-2010. There is a problem that I am having and it is with my port, it is sticking up from under my breast bone and it hurts so much. If any one has this problem let me know. My doctors keeps menimizing what I feel,
  4. Well its not what you say but how you say it. Iwas banded 4-12-2010 lost 17lbs first week and gain 6 lbs back, Am i disappointed, HELL YEAH and im yelling that. I didnt take time off of work and stay on liquids for 2 weeks and go throught this pain to yo-yo. I want results because that was what was told to me from my doctor. If i was told that my weight would not come off until the 3rd or 4th fill as you say , i would have research a little further before making a big commentment such as this. And I believe that people should share what EVER they want during this process, it is a part of healing.
